#Wrath john gwynne series#

The Faithful And the Fallen contain tons of actions spread out throughout the series and all of them are superbly written. вЂњTo my thinking, though, it's what happens before death that's important. They are all so well written that itвЂ™s almost impossible to be ignorant about their fate. ALL these characters will evokes all kind of emotions for the readers such as love towards the protagonists, you'll care about them, fear for them and for the villains, you'll hate them and you can't wait to see vengeance poured upon them. Although we follow more than 15 perspectives throughout the entire series, it's amazing that none of the narrative ever sounds the same, theyвЂ™re all unique and intriguing. This may intimidate some readers but don't be afraid, John's writing made it really easy to remember all of them once you managed to get through the first book, plus, starting from the second book and so on, thereвЂ™s a glossary of character list right at the beginning of each book with a brief summary of what happened to each of them in the previous installment. I'm not exaggerating, there's literally more than 100 characters to remember. The entireВ series is really massive in its scope with Ruin & Wrath being the biggest, it's the only series I read so far to use the entire map, literally ALL locales are visited throughout the series and it's also filled with uniquely huge casts of characters. Once you reach the second book, it's really clear who belongs to which side of the coin in the story. The main reason for this is because all the main characters are really compelling and lovable, other than one or two character, none of them is on the grey moral code. It's a fantastic written culmination of the entire series and if that still doesn't convince you read it, please continue reading this review.ДЄlthough throughout the series the story only get darker as it progressed, I must remind you that this dark fantasy never goes into the 'Grimdark' territory. After the bloody cliffhanger of Ruin, Wrath started right off straight from where it ends and managed to conclude everything that were initiated from Malice with a satisfying and emotional ending. The entire story span around 5 years and during this period of time, a lot of characters development and monumental events transpired. I'll let you know some basic outline of the series such as the entire series revolves around the concept of 'Good vs Evil' which grew in complexity as the series progressed. I won't go into any details on what the plot is about so don't worry, you're safe to read this review if you haven't started the series. The series is written close to hit home for every epic fantasy lover of Good vs Evil theme, it triggered a strong sense of nostalgia to why I love the the theme in the first place with a slight changes that this time the undertone is darker in a sense that it's quite similar to 'A Song of Ice And Fire' series by GRRM. No, good is a really huge understatement. No, almost every single plot device here has been done before. Does this series provide something new to the genre? I'll start off my review with two simple questions.ДЎ. вЂњIt will be a dark day, a bloody day, a proud day, for this is the day of our wrath.вЂќ That made him one of my really few auto-buy authors along with Brandon Sanderson, IвЂ™ll be content with buying every work they write. Wrath is in my opinion the best out of the four book in the series, which means the series always get better with each installment and with its completion IвЂ™ve decided to include John in my list of favorite authors of all time.
